    They are persistent in Portland, but no more than the protesters in Louisville, Kentucky over the death of Breonna Taylor.

    VG if you think that law and order stance is going to work for the most corrupt politician in U.S. history - you're sadly mistaken.

    Let me guess you also use spray-on tan, because the fumes seem to be affecting your mind.

    You really don't think the % of the American voting public that give a shit or have any clue as to what they are protesting about in Portland is far far smaller than the % that just wonder if this happens in a Democrat strong hold, what happens across the country if Sleepy Joe wins?

    Ted Wheeler has a new book coming out: Ten ways to hand The Donald a second term, and I'm three of them

    The people rioting in cities like Portland, Seattle, NYC, and Chicago don’t actually want to fix anything. They just want to be angry

    They fixxed a little bit. Seattle City Council approves complex package to cut police budget

    I think that was yesterday.

    The establishment really wants to fight this cause police protests , slow downs and sick outs have proven all hell doesn't break out if a few less people get busted driving with expired DMV extortion stickers and crap like that.


    "When New York police officers temporarily reduced their “proactive policing” efforts on low-level offenses, major-crime reports in the city actually fell, according to a study based on New York Police Department crime statistics.

    The findings, published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, put a crack in the “broken windows” theory of policing that has become a mainstay of many urban police departments." In New York, major crime complaints fell when cops took a break from ‘proactive policing’

    Plenty of man power for fighting real crime.

    They don't want the public to know they are getting ripped off.

    First off, your meme is comparing an average patrolman to a SWAT team in a training session. Kinda an apples vs oranges. Second, the "good ol days" of policing wouldn't fly in today's times. A police officer could hit you up side of the head for looking at him funny. You could "slip and fall" on some steps if you were arrested for something heinous or attack a police officer. Not to mention the blatant and rampant racism of that time period.

    Sick and disgusting.

    I'm so tired of the negativity and outright disregard for humanity.
    I'm really surprised at you 6 eyed, can you go any lower?

    What's next little stick figure kindergartners getting shot with an AK 47?

    When they attempt road block protests, or even worse when they attack motorists with rocks and bats.

    Where is their regard for humanity? Rioters have killed enough people themselves

    That’s what self-described neo-Nazi James Fields was thinking just before he deliberately drove his car into a crowd of people who had been peacefully protesting in Charlottesville

    He was sentenced to life in prison with an additional 400 years tacked on for good measure

    Is that what you support?

    Lolz:


    "A lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Seattle alleges that protesters in the Black Lives Matter movement are being priced out of their civil rights by the prohibitive costs of defending themselves against police violence.

    The five plaintiffs in the lawsuit allege that the purchase of helmets, gas masks, protective clothing, goggles, gloves, boots, umbrellas and other gear they say are needed to fend off police pepper spray, less-lethal projectiles and other crowd-dispersal tools has impinged on their civil right to peacefully protest.

    All five — Jessica Benton, Shelby Bryant, Anne Marie Cavanaugh, Alyssa Garrison, and Clare Thomas — say they were the victims of “indiscriminate” police violence during protests on Capitol Hill on June 25. They claim that repeated use of force by SPD during more than six weeks of civil unrest over systemic racism and police brutality against people of color has made it impossible to exercise their right to gather and protest without personal protective gear, which isn’t cheap.

    “Because protesters now must purchase expensive equipment to be assured that they will be able to protest safely, the indiscriminate use of weapons by SPD implicates equal protection,” the lawsuit alleges."

    Lawsuit alleges Black Lives Matter protesters are being priced out of civil rights; cost of protective clothing too high


    Man, your country is nuts
